tnuag Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 AIM will be releasing new multi-media kits of the Cessna 310 A & B and the USAF U-3A variant in December 2016. These will also be our first kits released in 1:48 scale. For more details please visit our website page at http://www.aim72.co.uk/page182.html Neil Gaunt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 NICE! Pretty cool seeing one with the SAC flash on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K5054NZ Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Brilliant news for civil fans! Any chance of a Baron 58 in either scale? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) If we do, it would come with decals for Rhodesia United Air Carriers - the Baron 58 I flew in! Not impossible, but will need to see what sales of the 310 are like first. The 310 kits should be with Hannants before Christmas. There is a 1:48 CASA 212 in the pipeline as well.

Slartibartfast Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 It's common practice on scale modeling boards to thrash a new kit for inaccurate lines. Photos of the real craft are edited to add reference lines and curves (typically red) which are then added to similar locations on photos of the kit parts to show where the inaccuracies lie and how much they deviate from real craft.

Loach Driver Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 This kit looks nice. Think I'll buy one. Any idea on what the retail price will be from Hannants? LD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have the 1/48 Cessna 310 on preorder from Hannants. Nice to see something fresh and new being kitted. I'm really looking forward to the CASA 212 as well. Any chance we could get Swedish decals for the CASA? best regards Johan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 Can you tell me any details of the markings? There is a contacts page on our web site at http://www.aim72.co.uk/page142.html Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Luca Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Don't sell your products directly...? Only from Hannants...? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Yes from Hannants. These will be the first of our kits to include window painting masks. Edited December 15, 2016 by tnuag Additional information Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tnuag Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I have now finalised prices for the Cessna 310 kits and they are on the Hannants web site. One of the decal sheets had an error in printing and I am just waiting for the replacements - current expectations are that they will be available from Hannants at the start of January 2017.

ikar Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 That S.A.C. aircraft would be different and stand out. Also could do a Sky King bird. Then ther'e's the one from the Skyhawk T.V. series.....interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted December 24, 2016 Author Share Posted December 24, 2016 I have found a lot of info on the Swedish Coast Guard CASA 212-300 - looks a good possibility. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
